Flower filled card

 Over at OWSE one of challenges for March was to make something using flowers.  I have long admired Danielle Daws coloring skills using colored pencils.   Colored pencils are my favorite way to color something. 

I started with craft cardstock.  Using a heart template I lightly traced it in the middle of the paper. Stamped 3 different flowers all around. Used black stazon for 2 of them and red ink for one flower.
Using Derwent pencils I colored in the flowers.  It washed away my lines so using a Sharpie fine tip pen I outlined each one again. 

Hope you like it!

Sketch With A Twist #21-Win Stamp Set

How'd you like to win a beautiful stamp set?  

Click on over to MFP Speedy TV and enter this week's challenge on Sketch with a Twist.

Their stamp set are one of a kind and such good quality.  I love using them.

 My background paper is from Lost and Found.  I stamped the Christmas tree on the cardstock and again on a plain white piece of paper using black stazon.  That way when I popped up the tree it still shows a tiny bit of the outline on the paper.

 After coloring my trees with COLOURSOFT PENCILS - by Derwent.  I then took a paint brush and brushed some white opaque staz-on ink on the edges and sprinkled with glitter.  Turned out beautiful!

I made my own embellishments: punched two different sizes from the same paper line, stamped a sentiment from the same stamp set. Stamped the tiny snowflake and punched it and glued in the middle of JOY.

My "stars" are actually the largest snowflake  stamped on vellum with the white opaque ink and then I sprinkled with glitter.

I LOVE this card and the stamp set.  I hope you'll join our challenge for a chance to win and so I can see your card!
